Jannik Sinner is carving his name into tennis history with a streak of four consecutive Grand Slam final appearances. With the upcoming US Open, he has the chance to match legends like Rod Laver and Andre Agassi, who each reached four straight finals in their prime. Sinner’s run began with his triumph at the 2023 US Open, followed by victories at the 2024 Australian Open and deep runs at Roland Garros and Wimbledon in 2025.
Nadal’s five-final stretch looms ahead
The next milestone in Sinner’s sights is Rafael Nadal’s five-final streak from Roland Garros 2011 to Roland Garros 2012. Nadal’s dominance on clay during that period was unmatched, and Sinner’s versatility across surfaces makes his pursuit all the more impressive. If he reaches the final at the US Open, he’ll equal Nadal’s mark and inch closer to the top tiers of consistency in the sport.
Federer and Djokovic set the gold standard
Roger Federer’s record of ten consecutive Grand Slam finals from Wimbledon 2005 to the US Open 2007 remains the longest in the Open Era. He also posted an eight-final streak from Roland Garros 2008 to the Australian Open 2010. Novak Djokovic, another titan of consistency, had two separate streaks of six and five finals. These benchmarks define the summit Sinner is climbing toward.
Here’s a table showing the longest streaks of Grand Slam final appearances, placing Jannik Sinner’s current run in context with tennis legends:

A new generation’s rise
Sinner’s current streak is more than a statistical achievement—it signals a shift in the sport’s landscape. With Carlos Alcaraz as a frequent rival in recent finals, the two are shaping a new era of competition. Their back-to-back Grand Slam final clashes echo the intensity of past rivalries like Federer vs. Nadal.
Eyes on New York
As the US Open approaches, all eyes will be on Sinner to see if he can extend his streak to five. The pressure is immense, but his recent performances suggest he’s ready to meet the moment. Whether he matches Nadal or pushes beyond, Sinner’s journey is already rewriting the narrative of modern tennis.
